Thanks.

Should we also mention that CRYPT is platform specific?

I put in a note about the glibc2 version, but I was not aware of any platform oddities on the traditional 13-character version. Are there other MD5 variants?

We could also mention the LANMAN scheme which I forgot to include as it is a compile-time option.

Lastly, should I also put:

into doc/guide/COPYRIGHT ?

Yes please.
